Unique Glamping RV on 100 acres 1 hr from Toronto

This Retro GMC Motorhome has been completely refinished inside. It is surrounded by a large roofed deck with screened in eating area with barbeque and fire pit. It is located on the Oak ridges Morraine, an hour east of Toronto, on 100 acres of forested land, perfect spot for a family glamping getaway. It was the motorhome used by William Lishman from the film "Fly Away Home" while Leading Cranes on Migration and features a large crane mural painted by his grand daughter.

Filled with rolling hills and valleys, this 100 acre property features several kilometers of hiking and mountain biking trails. This unique property was featured in the film "Fly Away Home", and is the location where Bill Lishman raised and imprinted the geese on his ultralight aircraft that inspired the film. The motorhome interior has been completely refinished in wood, with hardwood floor and features a 2 burner propane stove top, refrigerator and microwave, dining room table and master bedroom with a small but functional bathroom. The dining area folds into a double sized bed and the couch converts into two single bunk beds - suitable for children or small adults. Two swiveling captains chairs provide a nice spot for morning coffee. A large screened in porch with eating area with BBQ provides a nice space to relax in a natural setting with no bugs! An outdoor fire pit is available for responsible use.
Guest access
Hiking, snowshoeing and mountain biking. Ample parking.

On request and depending on availability, guests may be offered a tour of the unique Lishman earth integrated underground home, featured on many television programs, YouTube videos and Canadian Geographic and Hello Magazines.
Other things to note

It was a cool one night getaway …. Felt like we were staying in the Barbie camper van. The screened in area was like gold once the mosquitos started up. Thanks
